MP CPCT Hindi Typing Test

About the test

MP CPCT Hindi Typing Test is conducted by MPESB / MAP_IT. The typing component lasts 15 minutes and expects about 20 words per minute in Hindi (Remington GAIL on Mangal), Hindi (Mangal Inscript). 20 net WPM in 15 minutes in Unicode Hindi on the Remington GAIL or Inscript layout; wrong words deducted; backspace disabled.

These 120 practice tests are modeled on the real format: the passage sits above a plain text box, there is no spell-check or highlighting while you type, and the timer runs exactly as it does in the exam hall. Backspace and editing keys are disabled, exactly like the real software, so every keystroke is final.

Use the tests to build the specific stamina and accuracy the exam rewards, then review the word-by-word report to see which mistakes cost you marks.

How it is scored

20 net WPM in 15 minutes in Unicode Hindi on the Remington GAIL or Inscript layout; wrong words deducted; backspace disabled.

Gross speed counts every character you type (five characters equal one word). Net speed subtracts mistakes: a wrong, omitted, added or misspelt word is a full mistake, and a capitalisation, spacing or punctuation slip is a half mistake. For example, typing 330 words in 15 minutes with 6 full and 4 half mistakes gives 330 minus 8, or 322 net words, which is 21 net words per minute.

Who takes it and when

Preparation tips

• Practise with the same 15-minute duration and the same passage length (800 words) so your pace is calibrated to the real test.
• Slow down slightly in the last minutes: with backspace disabled, accuracy is worth more than speed.
• Keep your eyes on the passage, not the keyboard, and read one or two words ahead of what you are typing.
• Match capitalisation, punctuation and spacing exactly; these count as half mistakes under the SSC-style rule.
• Aim for a practice speed about 10% above the 20 words per minute requirement so exam-day nerves do not push you below the line.
• Review the word-by-word report after every test and drill the words and keys you miss most.
